On route to 100 win season.

Could be a decent middle reliever. Could be nothing. Could be outrighted before spring even begins.

Remember, we gave up Blaze Jordan so rotted fruit like Roycroft, Raquet, and now Kent can be on the 40-man.

Did I miss the news that Blaze Jordan is no longer in the Cardinals system?

He was left unprotected for upcoming Rule 5 draft.

After the late July deals we need bullpen depth.

Jordan also hit under .200 for Memphis and had a low slug% too.

If he's gone, no big loss, but I also don't think he's a slam dunk for being selected, either. Especially since he's probably a 1B/DH type.

exactly -- lottery tickets who if they hit can be flipped at the deadline for a new bag of balls or maybe another lottery ticket

Are you new at baseball? Not every move is going to be a game changer. Minor leagues need players too.

we didnt give up blaze jordan. he may or may not clear the rule 5 draft. id bet that he does.

It’s low hanging fruit for sure but he did strike out 50 in 38 innings at AAA last season. I don’t mind a strategy of bringing as many relievers as you can to compete for spots it increases the chances of hitting on some decent arms. Pick up one or two in the rule 5 draft also and let them compete

I preferred his younger brother Clark Kent….Clark had great launch angle with plus plus speed ‘faster than a speeding bullet’ and more power than a locomotive .
Only weakness was kryptonite.
Seattle was his favorite team and wore the large S on his jersey.
